Also known as Gokul Ashtami, Janmashtami celebrates the birth of Lord Krishna — Lord Vishnu's eighth avatar. Why India celebrates Janmashtami: Legends says Lord Krishna took birth to kill Kansa, the evil ruler of Mathura. He was born to Kansa's sister Devaki, who was married to Kansa's friend Vasudeva.

The name "Krishna" originates from the Sanskrit word Kṛṣṇa, which is primarily an adjective meaning "black", "dark", "dark blue" or “the all attractive”. ... The name is also interpreted sometimes as "all-attractive". As a name of Vishnu, Krishna is listed as the 57th name in the Vishnu Sahasranama.
